Found footage monster movie Cloverfield is getting a sequel — kind of. People settling down to watch Michael Bay's 13 Hours in movie theaters last night were treated to a surprise trailer for 10 Cloverfield Lane, what appears to be a post-apocalyptic drama set in an underground bunker, produced by J.J. Abrams, and made by his Bad Robot production company. Soon after news of the trailer's existence hit Twitter, Abrams confirmed that the new movie would indeed be a "blood relative" to Cloverfield in a statement, suggesting it will take place in the same universe as the first film.
As seen in the trailer above, 10 Cloverfield Lane stars Mary Elizabeth Winstead and John Gallagher Jr. as seemingly captive guests of John Goodman in an underground bunker, who bans them from going outside for unknown reasons. The trailer ends when Gallagher Jr. makes a break for freedom, coming face to face with something in the outside world through a window that we don't get to see.
